Wow...! This is one of the most organized and helpful planning videos that I have come across. Love the permanent resource book and took a ton of screen shots to help me start mine. Found lots of new ideas around family and finance topic planning that I haven't come across before in my new addiction to Hobonichi planning videos. Love your maturity, style, and confidence. Thank you for inspiring me. :-)
One of the best videos I've seen on planning. Great ideas! I have been trying to decide which Hobonichi to try for 2021. And your voice is very soothing. I felt like I was listening to a meditation.
I see myself using the Hobonichi Cousin long-term as well! I think I've found true planner peace with the Cousin as my agenda and the Stalogy as my reference book / planner supplement. Thanks so much for tuning in to my channel!
I don't commit much but this video deserves like 20 stars it has helped me organize the ideas that are floating in my head. I now know what to do with those ideas and how to organize them in a fashion that will make sense not just right now but in the future as well. Best planner video ever.
Thank you so much! I'm really happy that my video inspired you and helped you with developing your planning system. Thanks for watching and commenting...Happy planning!!
I’ve been looking at comprehensive analogue planning systems after decades of having everything dispersed over multiple electronic and handwritten locations. I like some elements of the Bullet Journal’s flexibility which I aim to adapt to a Hobonichi Cousin in 2021, but I couldn’t see how it would work to integrate longer term collections among daily posts in a journal that is active for maybe as little as a few months. Many thanks to you and your contributors who have confirmed this as a real issue. Given the need to carry two books in the planner, the 6 month Avec seems the better Hobonichi choice.
I am learning (at 50!) so much from you! I love how you just do you. You're not concerned with all the fuss of planning if that doesn't work with what you NEED. I love "commonplace planning"! That struck a chord! I am brand new to the Hobonichi world after trying all the things before. I was stunted when it first arrived, cause I didn't want to "mess it up." Your plan with me videos have helped me to start... I really appreciate you taking the time to share your style with the world. I am very VERY interested in your batch cooking system. I should be better at dinners, etc, but I'm not. Please consider sharing your process with that. Thanks again!
I'm thrilled that you find inspiration from my videos! Thanks so much! My batch cooking process is really simple. I cook on Sundays and Wednesdays. I typically cook two meats (or a meat and a casserole that contains meat), a starch (in large quantity - rice, potatoes, mac and cheese, pasta, etc.), and a couple of green vegetables. Then we eat that until the next time I cook (make plates and pop them in the microwave). If we run out of food before I cook again (we don't usually), it's pizza, burgers, or hot dogs! That's it!! If your family doesn't like leftovers, this totally will NOT work for you! LOL!
Love your videos!! And your voice is so soothing! I completely agree with the feeling of oppression stemming from everything happening around us - happy to hear you are giving yourself grace! Many Blessings!!
I love the way you are guiding and sharing your tips. Your ideas on how and what to write are very helpful. I didn’t know how to start. Thanks to you I will try and start. please share more tips on what to write. Thank you so much
I'm super impressed with how organized and documented you are! My mind always does these things, but you've inspired me to put it down on paper. I'm a Hobo Cousin Avec user too and also use a Leuchtturm 1917 as my reference book, which I leave on my desk and update periodically
Sounds like we have very similar planning styles! I like to keep my reference book with me, though. I love having everything in one place. Thanks for tuning in to my channel!!
I just switched from Franklin Covey day on two pages to a monthly weekly bound book for the exact same reason you mentioned. I want to have everything in one place and not have to worry about storing my pages. I started using a companion notebook after watching one of your first videos because I was hoping around sizes and I hated having to rewrite important info each time. I’ll definitely be adding to it and keeping it around for sure. Thanks for sharing so many great ideas and for explaining your planning system!
Love your system, and such a detailed explanation! I've been using a Hobonichi Weeks for 4 years (for on the go in conjunction with a spiral-bound as my "main/home" planner, but this year has had me searching for something more streamlined. The commonplace book/ approach is something my brain craves. I have been on the fence about switching to Hobonichi Cousin and I think you've shown me why I should try the Avec. New subscriber
This is so helpful. Thank you for sharing a detailed explanation of your supplies, process and overall system. Your layouts are pleasing to the eye and use the available space so efficiently. Your hobonichi daily spreads are so original. Moments of the day to preserve. Genius!
Thank you for this video! 🌷 I just discovered your channel! I will incorporate certain things of your permanent stalogy book in my system. I agree that having a somewhat all in one book is functional and relaxing. I had been using the bullet journal method for some time due to this benefit, the original method without the predated days or pre-made collections. Thank you a lot! It is maybe weird but I somehow feel more relaxed and happy after watching this/hearing your thoughts...☺️Many greetings from Greece! 😃
I saw on IG that you posted a System & Philosophy video. I grabbed my Hobonichi and pen for notes. I love your videos and posts, I always get inspiration. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your incredibly organized planning system. You've given me many ideas for my own planning system. I like the idea of having a Stalogy for your permanent resource book! I too have to comment on your beautiful voice. So soothing and a pleasure to listen to. I too was an avid reader pre-COVID, but read only two books from March to September. Like you, there were just too many things going on for me to be able to focus. Looking forward to checking out your other videos.
I enjoyed this so much!! So much to love in this video!!! -What a melodic voice and war of talking you have ♥️ -No enableing to buy tons of stuff -Referencing -And a great system New sub Right here 🙋🏽♀️
I really enjoyed this video. I am looking to make some changes for 2021 planning and I am so loving your way. I also love your voice, I was so into this video. I like that it wasn’t rushed. 💛💛
I would love to see a video on how you batch cook for the week. Love your voice and gentle vibe and the way you plan is very thought out, I might have to steal a couple of your ideas lol 😆
Thanks so much! Feel free to borrow ideas...I've borrowed many from other wonderful people in the planning community. I'm not sure I'll do a cooking video...That's WAY out of my comfort zone! I think I'll stick to planners...LOL!! Happy planning (and cooking)!! :)
I’ve been watching your Instagram for the longest. Love your pages and your style. I wish I had a family and home to keep an order this is exactly what I’d like to do . I plan as a single lady and I don’t do much so sometimes I don’t write things down. Thanks for the insight
I love my Hobonichi Cousin so much - I understand the terminology "Planner Peace" since I found it. I totally need to create the reference book, it makes so much sense. I have been using the daily pages for reference (I bought my planner in March, so I had two and a half months of daily pages to fill). I will be buying the Avec from now on though, because I am a memory keeping planner type - my weekly (and some daily and monthly) pages are filled with stickers and labels and tickets and photos, so the planner is getting quite bulky. Thank you for such a detailed view of your system...
Hmmm interesting. It was a lightbulb when you mentioned a permanent planning book. I will make one and call it The Vault, which I saw in…maybe the strikethrough system?
I'm not actually in BSF right now. I have a note to myself in the PERSONAL section of my Stalogy to look into it for the future. What is the next study topic? :)
This is an excellent planner system and I hope I can use lots of ideas you showed. Where are the sticker kits and monthly tabs from? I've already ordered a Hobonichi Cousin for 2021 and your video shows exactly how I want to organize it. I've been wanting to start a Commonplace Book so I think I'll add a Stalogy too.
I'm glad you've found some inspiration for your 2021 system. The yearly overview sticker kits are from ThePayneStation on Etsy.com, and I purchased the monthly tabs from The Container Store. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for not using and recommending a zillion purchased stickers. I see no purpose in spending hundreds of dollars to cover up paper that already costs more because it's so special. A few is fine, but some of these planner gals are so busy trying to get kickbacks that they turn the book into a multi hundred dollar drawer book. Markers are just as colorful and sticky notes are lovely. Done and done.

Thank you, and you are so welcome! I'm glad you found some inspiration...Happy planning!
My favorite thing about your planner and supplemental notebook is that you actually USE it. I love me some functional, lived-in planners.
Thanks so much!
One of the best videos I've seen on planning. Great ideas! I have been trying to decide which Hobonichi to try for 2021. And your voice is very soothing. I felt like I was listening to a meditation.
Awww...Thank you so much! I'm glad you found the video helpful, and thanks for tuning in to my channel!
I absolutely love your voice!! You sound so elegant!!! xx
Awww...Thank you so much!! I really appreciate you tuning in to my channel!
Totally. I was going to comment the same thing. So soothing. Calming. Thumbs up.
I concur.
Next year will be my sixth year with a Cousin! I love how you’re using your Stalogy for a permanent resource.
I see myself using the Hobonichi Cousin long-term as well! I think I've found true planner peace with the Cousin as my agenda and the Stalogy as my reference book / planner supplement. Thanks so much for tuning in to my channel!

So inspirational 🤗
I'm so glad to hear that...Thank you!
I just ordered some stalogy books. Thanks for such great ideas!
You're so welcome! I'm glad you got some inspo from the video.😊 Thanks for watching!

You've got yourself a new subscriber Miss Lady 😌
Welcome and thanks for subbing! Enjoy!💕
Love!! Love!! Love!! I am trying to keep up my planning with this covid mess
Thanks...Hang in there!
love this, very inspiring. the re-writing gets old FAST, much better to have a reference book.
Thanks so much! I totally agree...I love my reference notebook!
Very nice indeed.
Thank you!
Hmmm interesting. It was a lightbulb when you mentioned a permanent planning book. I will make one and call it The Vault, which I saw in…maybe the strikethrough system?
I'm glad you found some inspiration! Love the name...Perfect! :) Thanks for watching!
Hi. I saw you listed BSF. I attend it as well. Last year I did it online. I am excited for the new study.
I'm not actually in BSF right now. I have a note to myself in the PERSONAL section of my Stalogy to look into it for the future. What is the next study topic? :)
Architect Destiny Genesis. It starts next month and I plan to do it online again.
This is an excellent planner system and I hope I can use lots of ideas you showed. Where are the sticker kits and monthly tabs from? I've already ordered a Hobonichi Cousin for 2021 and your video shows exactly how I want to organize it. I've been wanting to start a Commonplace Book so I think I'll add a Stalogy too.
I'm glad you've found some inspiration for your 2021 system. The yearly overview sticker kits are from ThePayneStation on Etsy.com, and I purchased the monthly tabs from The Container Store. Thanks for watching!
Your system is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. Where did you get the stickers for your yearly view?
Thank you so much! I believe the yearly view kit in this planner was from The Payne Station on Etsy.com. Hope that helps...Thanks for watching!😊
Thank you for not using and recommending a zillion purchased stickers. I see no purpose in spending hundreds of dollars to cover up paper that already costs more because it's so special.

Yes, my style is definitely functional with a touch of cuteness...Not the other way around! 🤣 Thanks so much for watching!!
Love the combination of a hobonichi with a stalogy. Are they both the exact same size?
The Stalogy is a tad bit slimmer, but they are pretty much the same size. Perfect combo!
